This plot shows the most recent results from the JBOMD detector
situated at Jodrell Bank Observatory in the UK. On this plot, time goes
along the x-axis. Vertical lines are separated by one minute and the
most recent result is on the right. The y-axis shows the frequency of
the received signal in Hz.

Each bright yellow point you can see is a reflection from the ionised
trail of a meteor in the upper atmosphere over Europe. This plot shows
the last five minutes of results so it will change regularly. Watch out
for echoes which last for several minutes - these are caused by
"fireballs", large meteors which can be visually extremely bright and
leave visual trails lasting for several minutes.

Note that the times in these plots are given in UT (WAST = UT + 8hrs).
The results are live from the UK showing current meteor activity. Many
of these reflections will be from Perseid meteors, although some will be
reflections from sporadic meteors which are not associated with any
particular comet.
